Galantspeedz Turbocharged July 18, 2014 Share July 18, 2014 Tony Barrett from Times given a summary on Pool's activity but i can't find an online version for it. In gist: 1) BR is looking to bring in 5 more players; 2) offers for Lovren and Davies; 3) close to getting Origi; 4) Remy is now the target as Bony interest cools; 5) all the earlier signings are planned prior to Suarez sale, ie, proceed from the sale untouched So we have 4 names from him. Spurs bought 6-7 players when they sold Bale, Pool trying outdo Spurs? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osprey23 Turbocharged July 18, 2014 Share July 18, 2014 (edited) Spurs bought 6-7 players when they sold Bale, Pool trying outdo Spurs? Well, we signed 8 albeit 2 on loan last summer. So, we are just trying to outdo ourselves :) Our squad still too thin. Further, expecting quite a few outgoing as well. Btw, Express reported that Sami Khedira's protracted move to Arsenal is off due to excessive wage demands. Wenger's alternative is Morgan Schneiderlin. Let's work together to strip Southampton.

Osprey23 Turbocharged July 18, 2014 Share July 18, 2014 (edited) 5 more players?!?! too many isnt it? will be like when dalglish first took over n also like spurs when they sold bale. but, jus hope that out of the 8 or 9 players they wanna buy, only 2 or max 3 will b first 11. the rest to add squad depth. I find it ok. Let's look at it this way. Lambert replaced Aspas; Markovic replaced Moses; Lallana replaced Suarez and Can likely to replace Lucas. Davies if signed, will replace Cissokho. Lovren likely to replace Agger. Remy might replace Borini while Origi will be loan back to Lille. Richards if sign, will replace Kolo. So you see, we are just upgrading (apart from Suarez who cannot be upgraded lol), squad did not really swell by a lot. I am still hoping for a big name. I stress, hoping only.

Osprey23 Turbocharged July 18, 2014 Share July 18, 2014 (edited) After signing Rio, QPR is now hoping to tie up Caulker. They might also move for Glen Johnson. having say that, the squad is still as thin but with a "better" breed of players? Ya, something like that. However, if those replaced players are not sold at the end, they will build the depth, not forgetting also the young players. Jordan Ibe. His time has come.

Osprey23 Turbocharged July 18, 2014 Share July 18, 2014 (edited) Reports from Spain saying Pool are after Atletico Madrid right-back Javier Manquillo. Likely a loan deal. Arsenal was interested in him too. Not sure if it is still the case after they signed Debuchy Edited July 18, 2014 by Osprey23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osprey23 Turbocharged July 18, 2014 Share July 18, 2014 (edited) The bite cost Suarez a move to Real Madrid. They were offering cash plus Isco which Pool were ready to accept. With Real Madrid signing Kroos and James, Isco might be a surplus. Edited July 18, 2014 by Osprey23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed with you, bro :) We are just "replacing" some fringe players with better quality players :) On a whole, we are upgrading for the better :) Better for 1st team as well as on our bench :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osprey23 Turbocharged July 18, 2014 Share July 18, 2014 Mirror reporting differently from Echo. Claiming Davies will join Spurs for guaranteed first team as Liverpool are still chasing Moreno.

As I posted earlier, Remy replacing Borini. We didn't just get an upgrade, but also make £6m in the process.

Lol Good deal I will say No lah, Arsenal only one or two this window, coincidence. Spurs have been doing it for past few windows, different managers too. Ya, happy with this deal. Borini won't feature much if BR sticks with 4-3-3. Nope, not him. As I posted earlier, Remy replacing Borini. We didn't just get an upgrade, but also make £6m in the process. Echo also now say we losing out on Davies. http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/liverpool-fc-close-agreeing-14m-7457256 With Davies going to Spurs and my trusted sources insisting Bertrand is happening, I really hope we will sign Moreno now. Bertrand is willing to be back up but not Davies. Edited July 19, 2014 by Osprey23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osprey23 Turbocharged July 19, 2014 Share July 19, 2014 Pogba or Vidal? Neither bro. Vidal is more likely to be at Man Utd. I am suspecting could be someone from Real Madrid ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
